Bon Ami is mainly feldspar and calcium carbonate, which is far less abrasive than silica or alumina. It's sold by the S.C. Johnson Company, in Canada
If you can't find it in Canada, you could try your local pottery supply shop which will carry both feldspar and calcium carbonate.
Also, here's a URL where you can buy Bon Ami on line. They say they ship to Canada.

Listers:
I presume to make this request on this List because
1/ Many of the Listers to whom I have sent Apple Service Manuals over the years have replied with gracious thanks and asked me to let them know if there was an occasion when they could return the favour and
2/ Some of this stuff will actually be used to clean PCI PowerPC Macintosh computers.
A few years ago I bought some cans of a mild abrasive powdered cleanser called Bon Ami in the States.
For some reason this stuff is not available in Canada.
Now I need some more.
If one of you fine people could get me a price for ten or twelve of the cans that they sell this stuff in (about 6 inches high and 3 inches in diameter) I could PREPAY for them with PayPal in US dollars. A smaller number of larger containers would probably be an even better deal.
Then if a figure for shipping via USPS could be sent, I could PREPAY again with PayPal.
Any takers ???
